I handheld my Nikon COOLPIX P1000 camera and shot this image at 4:30 AM outside where the moon was showing over the back of our house. I started out at 4:16 AM when Total Eclipse began and got in practice, but saved this last one to submit to the contest. According to what I researched online for our area: "Total Eclipse began at 4:16 AM, Maximum Eclipse began at 4:59 AM and at 5:41 AM total eclipse ended." I awoke earlier in the morning to see a Partial eclipse that began at 3:09 AM, but had black clouds rolling around it. I waited until later hoping I could shoot some pictures without clouds obstructing the view and got lucky that I didn't wait longer. After I captured this image in the few minutes after Total eclipse began and before Maximum Eclipse started, the clouds completely covered the moon and it disappeared from view behind the trees.
